Waabigan is the Ojibwe word for Clay and the name of Chanelle’s ceramic business. She is a Minneapolis-based Ojibwe potter who creates contemporary functional pottery. She has been a part of the Minneapolis Clay Collective since 2022 which allows her to share communal studio space in the Q.arma Building. Professionally, she is trained as a clinical therapist but always kept pottery in her life as a hobby. Currently, she is researching woodland pottery from the Great Lake Region as the 2024 Native American Artist-in-Resident at the Minnesota Historical Society. She is using archeological collections housed at the Minnesota Historical Society to study patterns, techniques, clay types, and utilization of woodland pottery. In her independent research she discovered items in the collection belonging to her relatives. The flower bloom from her logo is a bloom from her ancestor’s dancing vest that she found in the Minnesota Historical Society. She hopes to use more historic pieces as inspiration for her contemporary work.
